Fresh salade with rucola and hard-boiled
eggs

(Insalatina fresca di rucola e uova sode)

2 small bunches of rucola

6 hard-boiled eggs

2 fresh eggs

2 lemons

olive oil

salt

1/2 tea spoon of powder mustard

1/2 tea spoon of sugar

Take a blender and mix the following ingredients: the yokes
of 2 hard-boiled eggs, the yokes of the two fresh eggs, the juice and some
skin of the lemons, the mustard, salt and sugar. When all these ingredients
are well disintegrated and mixed, add some oil until the sauce will start
to get thicker.
Lay the rucola in a small tray, put over the remaining hard-boiled eggs,
which should be previously cut in segments, season with the above sauce
and serve.

The
"fashion" related to rucola does not let us be indifferent even
if the strong flavour of this herb has caused some perplexities for us.
But in any case it is our duty to treat also certain tendencies; this matter
does not disturb us, because, by this way, we feel realistic interpreters
of tastes and tendencies of the today "Florentine" people, so
that we result reliable and credible in our job.
This is the first justification which pushed us, several years ago, to choose
the way of the "private" giving up the "public" sphere;
that means the possibility to work and operate without any commercial compulsions
and hesitations.
